I get the voicemail notification but if i retrieve the voicemail from a landline, the notification does not go away unless i call my voicemail from my 8125. anyway to turn off this voicemail notification?
I also noticed this yesterday. The notification didn't go away until I received another voice mail and checked it from my 8125.
I used to run the stock ROM on the 8125 and yesterday I went to the updated i-mate (maybe Qtek, not 100% sure) and I noticed this yesterday after I flashed. It might have been happening before but I am not 100% sure.
same deal
i can't get rid of this annoying voicemail notification...it keeps coming back...i thought it was smartskey causing the trouble...i tried uninstalling it and now i caused myself another issue to deal with...i deleted all traces of the file, but somewhere in the registry it's sending info to startup the program that was deleted on startup...good thing i copied the damn folder...just can't uninstall the cursed thing now...anyways i just called T-Mobile to see if they knew about this issue...remember that notifications from voicemail are sent from their servers, so i was thinking that it was maybe not an issue from the progs i was using...the conclusion is that there was a post about a voicemail issue...when you call your voicemail and hang up after finishing with the messages, it's suppose to send another notification to the phone that there are no more new messages: but this is not happening, because their voicemail computers are down and the notifications that are suppose to tell the device there are new messages are not being sent to our phones
btw...you are probably thinking what this has to do with you...well t-mobile, verizon, and cingular are all gsm...they are using the same networks :!: now time to fix the other things i did to my phone
Verizon is GSM? From whom did you hear this? I don't think that is accurate. They have been CDMA for a long time.
yea
my fault...you are right! i believe i was only thinking that the phones do have sim card slots as well as nextel, cingular, t-mobile, etc (feel free to correct me if i am wrong)...but on a side note my vc indicator went away finally
Voicemail Notification off... how did you fix it?
Hello,
I am getting the same notification message constantly and I have tried several things to fix it, but with no luck. What exactly did you do?
I have Smartskey installed too,
Thanks!

My friend wanted to try out my Exec so we swapped SIM card yesterday, I guess he had a voice mail along the way so we got a voice mail notification on the Exec after he put his SIM in.
After he played around with it and swapped back, the notification stays there even with my own SIM in there, and no matter how many times I tried to dismiss it, it just refuses to go away.. How do I get rid of it???? Thanks!!
soft reset?
Doesn't work.. It's staying there no matter what... and I've cleaned out my voice mail already too
I think you need something like Pocket Mechanic to inspect the Notifications Db.
There isn't any notification DB with WM5 I think
Have you tried removing the SIM? Check if the SMS is on the card.
If it's not there, it might be an operator SMS caught in the system.
Not really sure how to clear that, you could try talking to your operator. Tell us how it goes.

Leave yourself a voicemail, wait a minute or two to make sure that it sets the notification, then call your voicemail and clear it out.

I had this problem with mine. I even hard resetted and nothing.
In the end, I put my t-mobile sim in an 8850 and it decided to clear it!
The problem is with my own SIM, voice mail comes in as SMS instead of the voice mail icon so I can't get another voice mail notification with my own SIM.. Guess I'll ask my friend for his SIM again to see if I can clear it, this is sooooo stupid
Yeah, tell me about it!
The only way I managed to clear mine (having deleted the voice mail about 3 days prior) was to place it in another phone (8850) then I called voicemail and it magically vanished instantly.
Then when I put it in my JASJAR it removed it
I'm guessing if your friend has already cleared his voicemail, just putting his sim back in your phone SHOULD be enough. :?
I have a notification message telling me that I have a voicemail on my MDAPRO and it just wont go away! I have checked my voicemail on numerous occassions and ther eare no messages.
I have re-applied the OS and it just keeps coming back to haunt me.
Any ideas on how to get rid of it?

I remember reading a similar problem you had before. Did you recently transfer and use your SIM on another phone?
The other person used his or her SIM on another phone when he/she got the message, but transferred the SIM on his/her Universal, creating the same notification you now are experiencing.
The solution according to him/her was to put the SIM back to the phone where you originally received the voicemail message and delete it from there. Once that you are sure there are no more messages, then put the SIM back to your Universal.
I get this sometimes with Orange UK.
Just call your phone provider and ask them to clear the notification from their end.
It basically happens when you delete your last message in your voicemail and you lose reception in between the time you finish clearing your voicemail and your service provider sending the voicemail indicator clearing flag.
The problem I usually get is if I am on international roaming I sometimes dont even get the flag coming up so messages build up (even when I come back to the UK) and only know about it when someone complains that I havent called them back after they left me a message.
Maybe this is just a problem with Orange UK ... not sure
It's not a problem with O2, they don't use the voicemail notification system, they just send a text!
I suspect this only applies to Ameos on T-mobile.
Does anyone know how to clear the Voicemail sign from the top menu bar?
It appears when you have a voicemail (very useful, although a text would suffice) but doesn't disappear when you have listened to the message and deleted it.
Also, even if you use the soft keys to select voicemail and enter your voicemail, it doesn't clear it.
Ideas?
Mine clears after a few seconds of deleting messages and stopping the call.
Have you stuck the sim in another phone ? there might be an old call registered on the sim, I had this once, it drove me mad till I worked it out.

No - it's a new sim which has only ever been used on this phone and only ever on T-mobile.
I wonder if SPB Phone is getting in the way....
When ever i turn on my HD2, i get the notification i have a new voice mail. but when i check to see i do i have no new ones it just the old one this is even happing when i switched to SPB shell. Is this hardware issue or something with my Sim or T-mobile? This is really getting annoying.
Anyone? can help me with this?
I have noticed the same behavior. In my case i had one saved voicemail and everytime I restart my device, i get notificarion of a new voicemail.
I have something like this too, its not just you.
I also deleted my saved voice mail. Does this have to do with the software or hardware issue of HD2. Tomorrow i'm going go get my sim replaced. T-mobile needs to get on these issues and send a new update.
I called Tmobile. They even went so far as to completely delete and reset my voicemail account. Didn't fix this. I switched to visual voicemail. Didn't fix this.
Tmo said they created a "trouble ticket" but I never heard anything again.
Obviously not everyone i having this issue...but us select few are. We need to determine what we have in common and then we'll know what is causing it.
Mine happened from Day, the very first time I put the SIM in. I had a Tmobile number already from a G1 that died. There were no new voicemails when I switched the Sim so it came up wrong from the very beginning.
I had the same problem, it was very annoying. Since I've switched over to energy roms it's never happen. I'm guessing it was a glitch in the stock rom.
i was having the same problem then i call tmobile and activate the new sim that came whit my hd2 and did a soft reset and my problem was gone (sorry for my bad english)
I figured out a fix for this!!!
I was said to be the first coustomer to notify tmobile about this problem.. I dealt with it for 2 weeks and even got a replacement phone...finally I suggested that they switch out my sim card.. IT WORKED.. this is now a known issue it is caused by visual voicemail on the HD2. the ONLY fix is to switch out your sim and disable Visual Voicemail for good...
I dont even have visual voice mail on..But i do have a a sim card from last year..So tomorrow after work i will stop by my T-mobile corporate store and see if they can fix it.
Whenever I try to set up the visual voicemail, it directs me to the website, and prompts me to add it to the package/bundle, and I do so, but it says that there is an error. Any ideas?

The service has to be active on your account for the app to work. If you're having trouble doing it through the website, you can just call up 611 and have a service rep add VVM to your line, it takes them all of 5 seconds.
I know I saw someone mention this either on here or another forum, but I'll be damned if I can find the solution.
I'm on T-Mobile's 100 minute plan and disabled carrier voicemail long ago. After moving everything over to my Nexus 4 yesterday I've been getting a persistent new voicemail notification. Of course it can't find my mailbox when it calls voicemail; it doesn't exist.
I can't see any way of clearing this. Anyone else run into this?

I had to call my T-Mo Voicemail leave a message, give it about 5 minutes. Hit the icon so it calls the voicemail then delete the one I made. Then switched to Google Voice lol. If you don't know your voicemail number, call your number from your phone. Assuming you didn't change any settings it should take you directly to T-Mo voicemail.

Well that's the rub. I called T-Mobile long ago and had them turn off voicemail altogether. I use Google Voice exclusively.
Edit: I should mention that it did this on both the stock ROM and CM10.1, though on CM it didn't start until after I rebooted the first time.
I had the same problem and I also had this problem with my Galaxy Nexus. The solution I found on both phones was that as soon as I rooted and flashed a new ROM I immediately installed Google Voice after performing the initial setup (before doing anything else). On both phones this prevented that persistent notification from ever returning.
Many others had this problem on the Gnex as well and all agreed that this solution worked.

So once it's there I'm kind of out of luck? Do I have to do a factory wipe and reflash CM10 for a chance at getting rid of it?
Go to your google voice account on a computer and mark EVERY voicemail that is not marked as read, read.
Solves your problem.

I haven't had any GV voicemails at all since powering on the Nexus 4 for the first time, either old ones or new.
I did change the voicemail setting to Google Voice in dialer settings then cleared data on the dialer app. That made it disappear... for now.

I had exactly the same problem after swapping SIM card to my nexus. My voicemail was disabled. Every time I call it I was forced to press * key and enter 10 digit number. I had to call T-Mobile to solve notification icon problem. They set up my voicemail again and left a message. After that I called and listened it, so the problem is gone now. Hope this will help you

Wipe cache and dalvik cache then fix permissions. After rebooting I bet it will be gone.
OP, any luck getting this sorted? I got an N4 for Christmas and I'm seeing the same thing as you.
I'm on the $30 prepaid plan, and had previously disabled my T-Mobile voicemail. Once I got a new micro SIM and popped it in my new phone, I received the persistent voicemail indicator. I called T-Mobile on Monday and all I could get them to do was to "create a report" of my issue - even after I suggested that they re-enable my voicemail to let me leave and clear a message. I'll try calling today to see if I have better luck stumbling across the magical combination of words to get them to do what I want, but figured I'd check in and see what sort of success you may have had.
I have the same issue, I am on Fido (Canada). I have the persistent icon every-time my phone reboots... I do have a voice mail, and I have no messages on it. I even tried calling myself from another phone, leaving a message and using my N4 to delete it, but it still there and persistent. I don't recall having that issue on my previous phone... (Gnexus)
I've also noticed that if gapps aren't flashed, the icon isn't there...the moment I flash google apps...it appears..
Any solution would be highly appreciated...
I've ran into this a few times and it's not always google voice, sometimes it's your carrier voice mail, you can also try setting your phone back to carrier voicemail, calling and leaving a message and then deleting it. It's fixed an issue on my work phone a few times.

Quick follow-up: My second attempt with T-Mobile support was much more successful. Within about ten minutes I had gotten my voicemail turned back on, a test message cleared (along with the notification), and the voicemail service disabled again.
From some reading around the web, it seems that new SIM card activations with T-Mobile default the Message Waiting Indicator (MWI) to On, I guess in an attempt to get you to set up your voicemail service ASAP. They unfortunately didn't have the foresight to automatically disable that if the SIM is activated on an existing line with no voicemail service. Oh well, that was easy enough to fix
I'm topping this thread because it's the first one that popped up in my Google search on how to resolve my issue.
AT&T Galaxy S4
Google Voice voicemail
Just got my phone in and I didn't set up the voicemail properly I guess.
Got a notification of a new voicemail.
The message wouldn't go away.
When I dialed the number it told me to dial, that just went to my Google voicemail which said there were no new voicemails.
I tried a BUNCH of things. Here is what finally worked for me.
1) I went to https://www.google.com/voice
2) I disabled my Google Voice on my phone from that link.
3) Rebooted my phone.
4) Now when I called my voicemail, it went to my AT&T voicemail instead of Google.
5) From there, I was able to delete my voicemails.
6) Then I re-enabled Google Voicemail on my phone from the link above and now all is good again. No more notifications that don't go away.
This thread was a huge help in me troubleshooting the problem.

Hate to resurrect an old thread but go to your dialer and clear data/cache and the notification will go away.

Do you mean in Settings / Application Data?
I tried that and it did not clear the indicator.
I needed to call T-Mobile, have voicemail turned back on, clear the indicator, and then call back and have them disable my voicemail service again so my calls would be redirected to my GVoice mailbox.
You should cancel it at your mobile operator. I had the same problem
